If we learned anything about the Milwaukee Bucks this past week, it is that these aren't your usual Bucks. Instead of making their “big name” free agent acquisition and then sitting back in anticipation of training camp, GM Jon Horst and coach Mike Budenholzer have been proactive in shifting the roster makeup, at least on the margins.
It feels like the amount of turnover has been abnormally high, even with two-way contracts in play:
In:
- Ersan Ilysaova
- Trevon Duval (Two-Way)
Out:
That's an interesting mix of medium and small moves, and while none outside of Jabari Parker's departure are big headline grabbers, the whole signal a deliberate move towards three-point shooting.
